More information can be obtained from the report as follows:- Yield trends and Changes of Chinese Cement over the years- Demand Structure of Cement in China- Main Manufactures and Their Production Capacity in Cement Market- Differences of Cement Industry in Different Parts- Financial Crisis Impact on Cement Industry- Promotion Role of a Planning of 4000 billion Investments on Cement Industry - Prospect on China’s Cement Industry

In 2008, the cement production in China was 1.388 billion tons, increasing by 5.2% compared to 2007. The growth rate was 14% over the same period in 2007. Chinese Cement single monthly year-on-year growth rate began a sharp decline in August of 2008. In the fourth quarter, year-on-year increase in production had been reduced to 2% or less, reflecting the industrial downturn of the macroeconomic impact, and showing downward trend.

The main applications of cement in China can be divided into three parts: infrastructure construction, new rural construction and real estate. It is predicted that real estate investment will be decreased sharply. However, 4000 billion investment budgets in 2009 to 2010 released by China's State Council will have a positive role in promoting the investment in infrastructure construction and new rural construction. It is predicted that the demand growth rate of Chinese cement will reach 10% above.

By February, 2008, about two hundred cement clinker production lines registered in China were being constructed. It is predicted that cement production capacity of newly constructed lines is 0.2 billion tons more or less. The net production capacity is 0.14 billion tons with the growth rate of 10%. Generally speaking, cement production capacity will be greatly expanded. Once the cement industry begins to develop, a large number of unfinished or eased production lines will restart. It is hard to get rid of suppress resulting from the expansion of cement production capacity.

Although cement sales in the first quarter of 2009 was in low season, the sales price of cement in most regions of China will still decrease, the plan of 4000 billion infrastructure construction investment will promote the demand of cement. In the second quarter, Chinese cement industry will gradually improve. The profit of cement industry will obviously improve in the second half of the year.

Because of the disparate distribution of China’s real estate and infrastructure construction, real estate in Central China, East China and South China have obvious impact on the cement industry. However, central China and west China are greatly influenced by infrastructure constructions; the plan of 4000 billion investments will bring better profit to these regions.
